Another small item. Male and female caps for water hoses. Sometimes you need to disconnect a hose and you don't want to coil it up into itself. These hoses carry your drinking water so keeping them sanitary is critical. I'm a licensed water distribution manager. Having male and female caps on hand prevents dirt, insects, pesticides, bacteria, feces, etc. from entering your water system and ultimately, your body.
I just bought my 31 ft. 5th wheel (actually delivering it tomorrow.) I have been watching several channels for about the last 6 months and wow, it really helped me tremendously. Tomorrow I start preparation for this late fall. I'll spend the rest of the summer getting use to driving. Parking, driving through my city, taking country roads etc. This whole process has been a blast. I want to thank all of the channels AND comments from other viewers. I'm 78 and going it alone. -keith
Awesome.
Living life!
You are setting a really great example! Congrats!
@@Jimmy_Jim_Jim_1234 Thanx:-)
@@WestShoreMan Thanx:-)
Congratulations, I'm in the same boat. But not buying a 5th wheel or 78 haha, but im 35 and buying a travel trailer and traveling alone. Life is too short. Gotta enjoy things even alone. And see what the best country in the world has to offer. Safe travels Sir.
An item that I've found very useful for working in low light situations outside is a headband light. It keeps both hands free for working.
Great recommendation! I keep one in the truck because you never know when you will need it.
The little stools work good as foot rests in front of your camp chair too.
The grab bar that attaches to the screen door. Won’t be without one.
This is my favorite mod to my RV. Very close second is adding magnets to the storage doors
Link?
Mine came with one or i would have bought one!
Use the collapsible bucket with a rope to lift things up to the roof when working up there.
That sounds like a great idea!
Well no wonder the collapsible bucket didn't work when you sat on it... You forgot to fill it with water first.
We have most of what you suggested and use them all the time. One other thing that seems a bit silly (but for me are indispensable) are sturdy but comfortable knee pads. They are knee savers for the "low level" projects like airing up the tires. I got mine at Lowe's for $18, hard rubber on the outside and about 2" of soft foam on the inside.
I've got a pair, I also carry one of the knell ons for gardening.
A three way hose splitter. We hook it up to the camp site spout. Use one outlet to hook up the RV water, another to set up a spray hose, and the third for just filling a pot of water to boil on the camp stove. Pray hose is good to spray down feet, messy dishes, dusty roads at camp sites…
The collapsible bucket is a winner - on my list. I’ve kept a folding shovel (army surplus) and used it multiple times for putting out camp fire, shoveling some light snow, etc. Cheap, takes up little space.
The sharp edge works great for splitting kindling too
I use that chair when I go biking. It fits right in my basket and I always have a place to sit!
The small stool would be useful to put in a backpack, when doing some exploring, I think. If one gets a bit tired, you have a convenient seat while you regain your breath. Thanks for sharing, Jared.
Y'all Be Safe!
I have the same stool. I’ve also used it when fishing. Hiking it in wasn’t terrible, nor was it particularly easy.
A must have is also a collapsible trash bucket with zipper lid. Lasts us a long weekend and keeps trash contained and covered. Also not small but our favorite new item is a Gazelle screen house. It’s a little large but requires zero assembly and sets up in literally minutes. Happy camping!
We have found little hooks that can be put up with command strips. These can be put in places where you want to hang a hat or a dog lead. You can put them on the back of the bathroom door for towels etc.
we also found spice racks that can be hung the same way. I would just say, with the spice racks, use plastic spice bottles. Glass seems too heavy and will peel them off.
Yeah, we got some of those chairs at Costco and they're the best camping chairs. So portable and comfortable
I also like the collapsible trash can. We can put a liner in it for trash, dry only, or we can just put stuff in it to keep the wind from blowing things .
Consider the taller version of the step stool to act as a comfortable seat outside the RV when working on the RV.
Great video. I wear a pair of jersey gloves when packing up. I can wipe items down prior to storing them. I wear them doing light chores. If my hands stay clean, so do my clothes.
All of those items can be replaced with just a regular bucket. Turn over the bucket and sit on it = stool, turn over the bucket and step on it = stepstool, and a bucket can also be used as a bucket!
But he stores items in the bucket. Right now I have the bucket filled with odds and ends from previous repair jobs. I'd have to empty it ever time I have to use it. Second bucket is no big deal, get two of the same kind and they can nest and in my storage area they would still fit.
The collapsible bucket could be used in areas where a fix plastic bucket would not, like for groceries in those up top storage spaces.
I carry a 20# to 1# adapter so I can fill 1# propane bottles from my 20# bottle. As much as I don't like 1# bottles, I still need them for my propane lantern and two-burner stove and grill if I'm cooking outside.
Thanks for key tip about sitting on collapsible bucket 😂🪣
We have the same chairs, and absolutely love them. A little handy tool i bought was a Camco sewer cap tool/wrench. Fits any cap and was only a few bucks.
The collapsible bucket chair bit. Laughs earned sir. Out loud laughs even.
Opaque condiment bottles are super convenient for a lot of things, like using them for oil on the Blackstone, spot cleaning dishes and silverware, washing hands away from the RV, and in general conserving water by only using exactly what you need in between tank fill ups. I also particularly love my portable propane water heater/shower, esp in the teardrop with no plumbing. Just fill up your collapsible bucket, put in the siphon hose, and fire it up for a hot shower anywhere.
I ❤️❤️❤️ this video. You won't imagine why. You finally gave me a solution to where to store my DYSON. I just realized that I have a huge amount of space on each side of our queen sized bed. Thank you so much!!! Sending this video to my husband and RV friends.
Same!!!!
The stool is great though!
I loved the comedy in this one! Great 👍 job Jared!
I have always wanted a camping chair that I can keep in a kitchen drawer
Nope
Great tips - thank you! Happy Fathers Day weekend!
My new toy is the save a drop water meter. Great way to measure water when you don’t have sewer hookup.
We have one of those too and love it!
I enjoy these videos because you do all the work and we reap the benefits. I prefer to be recommended products that have been tried and tested. Saves me time and money. Thanks.
Subscribed, thanks for being objective and concise.
Thank you!
I have two of those chairs and I love them so much!!!! Easy to store in my popup camper.
I have a collapsible laundry basket. Works great!
We love our collapsible laundry basket too!
You had me rolling on the floor when you sat on the collapsible bucket. 😂
The bucket stool example was excellent! Thank you 😄
LOVE your videos and thank you so much for all that you do!
A suggestion. Try not to spend so much time on each item unless they are unique.
Remember, to keep someone's attention make it SSTTP.
Short Sweet To The Point.
Again, thank you !
I enjoy the mix of humor with great information!
I take a magnetic hook and place on side of steps for the whisk broom.
My Leatherman Wave multi-tool with belt holster and Maglight mini. On my hip whenever I need it and I need it a lot!! Also, InstantPot. So many meals and it takes little space and doesn't heat up the trailer.
A friend just recommended your channel and I am finding it very helpful. I did look at the folding chair at Costco this spring. I personally did not find it comfortable, but I'm 73" tall and weigh 260. But every one is different and Costco has a great return policy. I'll keep watching your channel.
try this for a folding seat or step or foot stool or side table etc. Well worth it. Portable Folding Stool Folding Camping Stool Height Adjustable Outdoor Plastic Stools for Camping Hiking Fishing BBQ
REALLY digging the collapsible bucket 🪣!!!
I love the smaller compact chairs! We pack and take those things easy into our Jeep when we overland.
Sitting on the bucket was the best part! These are great products, though! Thanks for sharing!
I love my step stool to be able to get up into or reach into the bed of my truck. The husband laughed at me at firsy but now has seen the wisdom of havingnsuch a great tool.
We have the collapsible buckets and the step ladder! We have found them very useful! ~ Shion and Matthew
Step stool pro tip! You'll find it at Walmart in the laundry isle! Weird location, but that's where they stock it. 11.98 in Indiana.
Small USB grilless fans.
On warmer nights they can be the difference between having to run the AC or not.
Excellent! Thank you!
I have a walking cane that opens into a little tripod seat . . .
love the new funky opening...
How did it feel to hear all those “buckets” when editing? 😂 love it
I have those exact same chairs, got 2 of them at a "closeout store" for $9 each! I love them! Major score IMHO.
That is an amazing deal.
Another great video, happy Father’s Day!
Great suggestions. Getting a vac
We have the stool! WE LOVE IT!
There’s chairs for small people and there’s chairs for us Big people and no they don’t fold up small. We need a newer vacuum, will have to take a closer look at yours. Always a good idea to keep whisk broom handy👍
Thank you for all the ideas
Great information. Thank you Sir!
I move my regular bucket out of the way about 20 times in the storage bay between use… maybe it’s time for a collapsible. Our foldable end table comes in handy on the patio all the time!
Thanks, Jared. This is a great list!
We have that step stool and it’s terrific!
Thanks for the tips, enjoying your channel, very good information with explanations follow-ups, keep em comming sir.
Another great and useful video. Thanks J!
Also, I have a collapsible tall kitchen size trash bag holder, Coghlan's I think, that I keep outside for trash. Inside, I keep a 4 gallon waste basket.
another great vid full of helpful tips and advice....thanks again, Jared!...(and I've had one of those little collapsible tripod stools for years, they're incredibly handy)
I’ve also heard Tillamook buckets work really well…. 😉 😊
Great accessories, thanks
Just joining your channel. Great content young man! Keep up the good work 🙂
Thanks! Will do!
Good ideas
I love these 1st world problems. I'm all in.
I like your filming style. Well done.
Love the comedy at 9:23!
Thanks.
Good video, but I believe the brush you show in the video is a Libman brush and definitely not the one that the link goes to. We ordered the one from the link and it's a Mr. Clean Crumb Catcher :)
Yeowsuh! Priced that vaccum on Amazon: $449!!!! Pricey little gadget.
That is expensive. We picked ours up for under $200 5 years ago on sale.
your "bucket" count 14 - LOL when you need a bucket, that is a definitely a bucket, best collapsible bucket int the bucket industry... Me 4... you win..you added 3 more at 5:32 Love ya.
Good advise…
Always love your videos Jared - Thank You
Good info
Collapsible bucket....okay...it's a bucket, that collapses...got it...har har...oh, and CANT sit on it. Good good. Your funny bro, can't wait to meet. Great vids.
Great video! I noticed you had a drip tray in your hot water tank compartment for draining it.
Can you link where you got it?
I came here to ask the same thing!! Never saw one of those before.
I believe that is built into the tankless water heater like the one used in the Winnebago View/Navion. I don't remember the name but maybe Truma or something like that.
TY!❤️
Like it all BUT can't use most of what you showed because at 6'2" and 365 most of that would break quick. We got the folding stool, small broom and vacuum already so any ideas for us Larger folks on folding step and chairs?
A man with a stature of 6’2” inquiring about a step stool for an RV? Sir do have a Space Craft RV?
Man, been usin' those little foldable stools for years at the homestead. I know that they were very popular in Japan when I was stationed there back in the 90's. Great video!
G!eat job on the sand castle! We liked the chairs. Have you tried using them on the beach/sand? Thank you! (It was funny watching you sit on the bucket). We use a collapsible dish drainer.
How about a mat at the bottom of the steps to wipe your feet?
Man wish can use a hose like that but our regulator on our little girl grill is the only way to adjust it. Would love to not drag the propane tank around every time we want to grill
Living with years without a camping chair?! I use a chair almost daily.
Thanks! Looking for an quick disconnect that replaces the throw away canister connection at my Weber grill. Also need one for my propane fire pit.
Looks like I have a "QCC1 Regulator Valve for 1lb Type1 Throwaway Cylinder" on my Weber Grill. I want to quick disconnect at the grill and at the RV shut off valve.
Some good ideas. You could sell a fridge to an Eskimo! 🤣
Fantastic!
My favorite accessories were the two hose wheels I bought to hold my electric cord and my water hose. So easy now to move them from the bay to the service area at the campsite. And then they stack well in the bay.
O
Sounds interesting. Can you provide a link?
What ones do you have? You use them with a 50 amp cord?
@@shawnberg868 I put the link above. I have a 30 amp cord. I just wrap them in there. There’s a spot at the bottom to pull your cord through to reach the pedestal. Same with hose. That way you don’t have to unwrap the whole thing, just what you need. The rest stays in the caddy.
@@JodysJourney Mind sharing again as a reply here? I don't see it in any of your comments. 😀
Love these ideas.
Are those the JT strong arms on your front jacks? How do you like them? Better than using a tripod?
it's the steadyfast system. Based on his initial review with his old trailer I did the steadyfast system on my 5er, I absolutely love them. The fact that he did them again with his new trailer, I think he's sold on them too!
Thanks for the tips Jared!!
Great video
how about an update on how your truck is behaving?
My propane regulator in the RV says 30 PSI but I have a low flow propane grill, which I think works off of 1/2 PSI. Is your setup the same? I am worried about creating a leak in the propane line if the the PSI is too much.
I can never use the propane outlet on my trailer because every grill I've ever found has its own permanently built in regulator and you can't run a grill that has a regulator to a source that has another regulator. I just bought a hose that connects directly to my external propane tanks to go to any grill that has a regulator. I'm not sure where all these grills that don't have a regulator are I've never found one.
I like the list, but would never spend $414 for the Dyson vac. Dyson is WAY overpriced. I have one in my home, but bought something similar for under $100 for the trailer. Maybe if I was full time I could justify it.
I hear you on that, we found ours at a sale for under $200 when we bought it.
